CA East bay help pls!

Hello Everyone!

I have 2 rx7s that I need some help on this Saturday (February 27, 2010).

The 1st car: Supposedly, 1 just needs the front driver's side brake rotor, there's a good chance it will need a replacement spindle as well.

The 2nd car: I'll be needing help putting on an entire rear suspension.

-Tools and jacks will be available, but it doesn't hurt to bring your goodies in case mine suck.
-The location is San Leandro and Fremont.
-San Leandro has the parts I need for both cars and the location of the car needing a rear suspension. The parts will be taken off a shell at the same location.
-The 2nd car (which only needs a rotor, probably a spindle, and a new battery) is located in Fremont.

I'd be happy to dive into the labor myself, but unfortunately I've learned in the past that my girly arms just aren't always strong enough.
Lunch and beers on me! PM me or comment below if interested, this is not a party or free for all of labor for food and booze I only need 1 other person, 2 if I think you're cool!

Pics to come! PM for details and addresses.

It's the whole rear suspension for one car. The other car is just a brake rotor, spindle, and battery. The second one should be a breeze, I don't know how badly rusted on the bolts are on the shell I'll be raping so that's where some manly arms will come in handy.

Anyone up for a day or rx7s lunch and some beers?!?!?!?!
